Hamburger SV is one of the largest clubs in Germany. In the New sticker on T-Online you will find all the important messages about the “red pants”.
The HSV second division women celebrated an important victory in the promotion struggle on Easter Sunday. At the relegation threatened SG Andernach, the Hamburgers won 2-1 (0: 1).
After 25 minutes, Malou Müller had surprisingly put the hosts in the lead. The HSV women only found better into the game after the half-time break. Lotta Wrede came to the field for Amelie Woelki after 58 minutes – and scored 1-1 ten minutes later. In the 73rd minute, the Vildan Kardesler, who was also substituted substitute – came 2-1 for Lisa Baum at halftime. With this score, it should stay until the final whistle.
With now 43 points, the Marwin Bolz team is the third in the table after 22 out of 26 match days on the last promotion. SV Meppen is three points behind HSV – but with the much worse goal difference. Both teams meet on the last matchday (May 18) in the direct duel. The SG Andernach remains third to last with 18 points and has a counter behind the SV Weinberg, which would keep the class as eleventh.
While his French players, William Mikelbrencis and Jean-Luc Dompé, argued loudly on the square, the coach Merlin Polzin would almost have remained away on Saturday evening. “This stadium demanded everything,” he croaked after the 2-2 of his Hamburger SV at FC Schalke 04.
The Hamburg players played almost the entire game after Schalke Kenan Karaman had been off the pitch in the 3. minute. Despite this advantage, they failed to win the game. In the 81st minute they allowed the equalization to 2-2 final score through the Schalker Moussa Sylla. Before that, the HSV players had failed to mark the third goal. Ron Schallenberg brought the host 1-0 (15th), shortly before the break Emir Sahiti (41., 43.) had turned the game in the meantime.
“The result is disappointing,” admitted Polzin, but did not want to be considered an excuse for a break in the Hamburg game that the HSV fans had lit a multi-minute fireworks in their block after an hour. The game was therefore interrupted for a few minutes. Afterwards, the Schalke suddenly pushed for the equalization. “That didn’t bring us out,” said Polzin, “we missed to score the third goal.”
Polzin did not want to overestimate the dispute between his French players. “They are like brothers, they said emotionally one or the other, and it is important for us to be completely open and honest.”
“On Tuesday, the two of them will turn back together,” predicted their teammate Jonas Meffert. He admitted: “We are frustrated, but you don’t have to talk worse than it was.” The double scorer Sahiti called “to forget the game”. You still have four games. “We just keep going,” said midfielder Ludovit Reis, “we can’t get negative now.”
In order to reward the support of the fans of Hamburger SV, the team has merged according to information from the “Bild”. This is said to have been taken over by the professionals during the away game against Jahn Regensburg. According to this, several thousand euros are said to have come together.
